I want to wish everybody a very Merry Christmas; the most famous and celebrated holiday in the world and most celebrated national holiday in the United States.

Enough with political correctness in the U.S. and also Canada, while rest of the western world (even in the UK and Australia) where 'Christmas' is used exclusively looking at various mall, stores and McDonald's sites whereas in North America 'holiday' is used much more when referring to Christmas.

Why would somebody be offended by Christmas when 80% of Americans are Christians and 96% celebrated the holiday?! Gash!

How many discussions of the same exact topic do you Bible thumpers need to feel good about yourselves? Nobody every said what YOU have to say, so why do you feel the need to comment on what others want to say. All the ranting and raving from the right over free speech and religious freedom over the past week and all I see is you lashing out at people who think or believe differently

Christmas starts today as as well... Indeed traditionally Christmas suppose to end until Jan 6 (Epiphany/Three King's Day).

Christmas Eve & Christmas Day are celebrated, that's why most places close early today.

Christians don't like to admit they swiped our pagan celebration of annual re-birth to concoct an origin story for their sado-masochistic mythology. Of course, 99% of them are totally ignorant of the fact.
